3030 Frame, tennis ball feet vibration dampener
prusaprinters
This is a vibration frame damper for a 3030 extrusion frame. The purpose of this modification is to reduce the sound your 3d printer generates. Many tables become "speakers" as the printer vibrates, creating resonance in the table. By damping the vibrations from the printer, you can reduce the audible sounds you hear significantly. My best guess is that my modified Prusa MK2 printer sounds have decreased roughly 80-90% from stock. Most of the sound that remains are from the MK42 heatbed vibrating on Y movement, something I can't fix without adding heft to the moving platform.The tennis ball snaps into the opening securely. You will need to print 4 copies. Frame dampers require 5 t-nuts to mount to your 3030 frame. I have almost completely eliminated all printer vibrations from my printer with this. As a bonus, the feet are extremely rigid and help keep the frame joints solid.Also included are base stands, which will prevent the tennis ball from sliding around your table if you wanted to secure your printer even more. I don't find that I need them. If you do, you can use double sided tape or anti slip pads under them as needed.Video of this in action:https://youtu.be/tvIX3IcaDaE
